what is the normal holiday entitlement for workers either part time or full time.

Holiday entitlement is 28 days if they work 5 days a week, if part time, say 3 days a week it is 16.8 days ( 28 days  multiplied by 3 divided by 5 )
Don't forget you will have to pay SSP if they are off sick, pension contributions,  and also the payroll costs will increase when the new pension contributions comes into force.

28 days does include statutory holidays though. What it all means though is that to make it worthwhile you need the employee to be bringing in around three times their daily pay.

Yeah i know they do but some people need   something better than that in their life. I would like to try and do it proper and help someone out in the future if picking up more work.

Yeah, those that come on here moaning about how crap staff are.

Alternatively, if your helper is serious. Then they set themselves up as a sole trader and you are sub contracting them. You pay them the agreed wage and they sort out their own taxes etc. So ita two sole traders who happen to be working together.
Your still helping someone out in life and perhaps more so!

It all depends what you call good money some might think 3-400 a day with help is good some might say they couldn't run there business on that,every situation is different who knows some might work on there own and still take what you may do with a couple of staff.

How do you handle holiday and sick pay when the guys aren't earning but your still paying out?

There is no employer's contribution for NI if there's only one employee and the tax is part of the salary.
